This sled is designed to help cut the half laps in kumiko strips. The registration keys are adjustable to accommodate different spacing in the grids depending on the project.

Thanks for the vid, I'm working on one right now. Trying to make the 'second layer' as attachments rather then the whole think being a dedicated kumico jig. (no way to post pics here, huh?) P.S. I don't know if anyone else mentioned it in other comments, but moving the T track on the rail was unnecessary. That Powertech stop is reversable from inboard to outboard position.

G'day Johnny. I appreciate your video a lot. Two questions. Having the aluminium guide adjustable from both ends seems to allow you to put it on an angle - when would you need that? Why did you make your aluminium guide bar so long when it seems you only needed the support near your fences?

Hello, really nice video! at 4:32, I noticed a strip of plywood between the saw kerf and the cut-out section of plywood. It looks like that's there to support both sides of the wood while being cut. how wide did you make that?

@JTWoodworks Жыл бұрын

Hey glad you enjoyed the video. That's exactly why that's there. I believe it's half an inch wide if I remember correctly. All the measurements are outlined in the plans

@trevorhayes3204 2 жыл бұрын

That’s a lot of adjustability room for the registration keys. Do you ever find yourself using the full length for massive grid spacing or some other use? I’m wondering if there’s any reason I couldn’t just shorten the whole right side of the sled to cut down on weight/size. I don’t want to miss out on unforeseen functionality.

@JTWoodworks 2 жыл бұрын

You can definitely shorten the right side. I don't think I ever went past the half way point on the 60/30 adjustable key.

@johnhoeing851 4 жыл бұрын

Hey Johnny, I'm going with zeroplay mitrebars instead of full length plastic guides. since theyre much shorter, where do you recommend placing them, front, back, center?Thanks man, love the sled!J

@JTWoodworks 4 жыл бұрын

If you can cover the areas where most of the cutting takes place, that would likely be best. Center and towards the operating side. That way it supports the sled best when it's most under stress

@ryanhorschman8060 4 жыл бұрын

I really like this jig. What blade are you using in your table saw when you are cutting the half laps in the grid? I have been thinking about getting a full 1/8" kerf FTG. What have you found works best? Thanks

@JTWoodworks 4 жыл бұрын

I use an alternate top bevel 1/8" blade and it works nicely. I'm mostly cutting soft woods so the small bit of material left by the alternate top bevel blade gets squished and doesn't effect the joint at all. It may have an effect on hardwoods but I haven't tested it yet

@ryanhorschman8060 4 жыл бұрын

@JTWoodworks 4 жыл бұрын

Because of the necessary precision of the jig and the wide variety of dimensions of different table saws, it would be difficult to build the sled without the table saw it's meant for. I offer plans for sell on my website for this sled if you change your mind and decide to build it. There are also much more simple sleds that you can build to accomplish the same results. You can find videos of those here on KZfaq. I hope that helps
